Now that he found out the reason why Concubine Su was suddenly bedridden, Nangong Yan's mood became even worse. It was obvious that someone had carefully planned to kill Concubine Su. He couldn't help but feel frightened when he thought about how he slept on the same bed every night.

"Physician Jiang, now that we know the cause of the disease, there must be a solution!" Huangfu Yuqing glanced at the physician aside: "As far as I know, brown sugar is a good way to attract leeches. As for how to kill them,

, you don’t need me to teach you this!”

"Yes, yes, I understand." Imperial Physician Jiang also secretly breathed a long sigh of relief. Although Concubine Su is currently very weak, it will be easy to solve as long as the root cause of the disease is found.

"Are you Li Yue? Besides taking care of the flowers and plants in the courtyard, what else do you do on weekdays?"

Li Yue was a little dumbfounded at this moment, but she reacted quickly and said: "After Princess Pingnan reminded me, I really remembered it, but I have heard that sandalwood can soothe the mind. Concubine Su is my master.

, I heard that she was having trouble sleeping, so I went out of my way to ask for some fine sandalwood."

"Everyone is here. These are all the maids serving Concubine Su in her palace!" the guard responded respectfully.

Not to mention that Nangong Longze couldn't understand, nor could the dozen or so maids standing below. It was clearly them who were waiting when something went wrong, so how could they call an unrelated maid to come? But at this time, everyone was in danger.

The little maids were all trembling with fear. You must know that this is a trial that affects life and death, and no one is worried that bad luck will befall them.

In the side hall of Manhua Palace, Huangfu Yuqing's cold voice sounded in the empty space: "Have you brought everyone here? Are you sure that except for these people, no one else has entered or left the palace of Concubine Su in the past ten days?!"

"No, Princess Pingnan does not want to accuse this slave unjustly. I have never entered Concubine Su's room, so how could she harm her? Concubine Su is my master, and this slave would not dare to eat a bear's heart and a leopard's courage...

"

Nangong Yan stared at the woman with his deep eyes, and a strange light flashed across his eyes. After lowering his eyes and thinking for a few seconds, he nodded firmly and responded: "Okay, I will hand over this case to you! If the murderer is found,

, I will reward you heavily!"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, was Princess Pingnan interrogating? The interest deep in Nangong Longze's eyes was getting stronger and stronger.

Just when Li Yue could hardly stand Huangfu Yuqing's cold stare, her indifferent and cold voice sounded in the air.

"Even if I go, there is no rush. At this moment, I have one more thing I want to ask you." Huangfu Yuqing said calmly and calmly. His entire attention seemed to be on Li Yue, who was standing underneath.

The dozen or so maids were ignored at the moment.

"Come here, bring her sister to see me." Huangfu Yuqing's lips curled up with an evil coldness. Since it was a vine, he had no choice but to follow it and touch it. He didn't know what he would find.

The big shot is coming.

"Of course you have not entered Concubine Su's room, because you have an accomplice in the room." Huangfu Yuqing smiled, and then turned his eyes to the group of maids. Her words immediately caused an uproar. Originally,

The maids who thought they had escaped were frightened to death, and all of them waved their hands and shook their heads.

"Sister Liyue? She...she is not from Concubine Su's palace. She is the maid responsible for pruning and taking care of the flowers and plants in the garden. It is impossible for her to enter Concubine Su's room." The maid who had spoken before in the palace was surprised.

He raised his head, wondering why Huangfu Yuqing suddenly mentioned Li Yue's name.

"Where did you get it from?" Huangfu Yuqing's face suddenly changed, and his eyes instantly returned to cold indifference. Li Yue, who had just relaxed a little, suddenly tensed up and his whole body fell into tension.

Nangong Yan's eyes couldn't help but glance at the other pillow on the bed. With just one look, the maid beside the bed had already reached out and took off the pillow, and handed it to the guard outside the curtain to tear it into pieces.

The pillow was actually clean. It seemed that the murderer behind the scenes knew the details of Manhua Palace very well. He even knew which pillow Nangongyan was sleeping on.

"Who did this? It's best to come out and admit it now. If I find out, you should know what the consequences will be!" Nangongyan narrowed his eyes and glanced coldly at the maids in the palace.

The voice was threatening.

…………Susu’s gorgeous dividing line…………

"Which one is Li Yue?" Huangfu Yuqing's cold water eyes shuttled back and forth among the crowd.13acv.

Moreover, when Huangfu Yuqing asked about Sandalwood, a strange look flashed in the maid's eyes, and she also did not answer. It was also the little girl next to her who answered. From various actions, it was shown that the maid was very suspicious.

Nangong Longze's eyes were slightly startled, and he didn't understand why this woman suddenly asked to bring over a maid who cleans the yard. There were so many maids in the imperial concubine's palace standing here. She didn't check, but instead wanted to bring over an unrelated maid. Down to

I can't sleep.

"Father, the matter has been investigated to this point. I sincerely ask my father to let me continue the investigation. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer within one day." Huangfu Yuqing took the initiative to step forward and made this request.

, now that she has started to enter, she wants to get to the bottom of it and see what the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes is. If she just wants to harm Concubine Su, why did she choose to do it at this time? Thinking about it carefully, this seems unreasonable and illogical.

.

"Eh?! I just heard that Concubine Su is suffering from insomnia. It was you who sent her sandalwood. Could it be that this is a fake?" Huangfu Yuqing pretended to be confused and looked sideways at the little girl in the crowd.

Maid, those words came from her mouth.

"What a loyal slave, but she doesn't hesitate to steal things for the sake of her master. I'm just wondering, is there any need to steal these few sandalwood plants? Just go to the housekeeper's house and tell her that Concubine Su's palace needs it, and the palace staff will probably give them to her.

Not as good as that." Huangfu Yuqing snorted contemptuously and said coldly: "I have already asked the imperial doctor that sandalwood has the effect of activating leeches. I'm afraid you have other motives for doing this!"

"Just because it's impossible to enter the imperial concubine's house doesn't mean that you can't go in. Bring Li Yue here..." Huangfu Yuqing glanced at the girl who was speaking, and his cold eyes made the little girl lower her head in fear.

My head, I dare not say anything anymore.

"Yes...it's from my slave sister!" Li Yue's voice was so low that only she could hear it.

"Hey! Wait a minute -" Huangfu Yuqing observed that at this moment, he could roughly guess what was going on. It seemed that there was indeed something wrong with Li Yue. It was easy to see from her behavior that she was panicking at the moment.

The maids looked helplessly at the leeches squirming on the ground outside. They were all frightened to death. They all knelt down and said, "The slaves are unjust. Please see clearly."

"Yes, yes, I will go to Huayun Palace right away to help take care of the flowers and plants." Li Yue's eyes flashed as she said, as if she was taking the opportunity to escape, she hurriedly bowed and was about to leave.

"I have been suffering from insomnia at night recently. I wonder if you have any good ideas?" Huangfu Yuqing asked casually.

"It seems that being a maid in Manhua Palace is quite relaxing. If I have some free time tomorrow, I can help trim and take care of the flowers in Huayun Palace." Huangfu Yuqing's speaking speed suddenly slowed down,

He showed a bit of laziness and his voice became softer.

"This slave doesn't understand what the princess is saying." Li Yue shook her head repeatedly, but did not dare to look Huangfu Yuqing in the eyes.

After a while, Li Yue was brought over. Huangfu Yuqing looked her up and down with a pair of cold eyes. Although he had not spoken yet, the invisible pressure brought by the woman's eyes made Li Yue feel uneasy. Although her face was calm, but

The tightly entwined fingers revealed her inner tension.

"Princess, please speak." Li Yue looked flattered that the dignified princess spoke to her so politely, it felt like she was dreaming.

Huangfu Yuqing's lips curled up slightly, she smiled but did not answer, her eyes slowly stared at the maids in the room, and she said coldly: "Within ten days, everyone who has been in and out of the palace will all be brought to the side hall to see me...

"

"And the reason why you didn't go to the General Affairs Office to get this is because you don't want people to find the records. If Concubine Su is really dead, once the cause of death is investigated, people will not think of leeches. Right?

"Huangfu Yuqing's voice became more and more fierce, and her thoughts were unusually clear. The men sitting aside and watching could not help but look at her with admiration.

Huangfu Yuqing's eyes slowly fell on the maid who had been slow to respond in the palace before. When she said that she wanted to invite the imperial doctor, the maid's reaction was indifferent. Only the little girl who spoke before was

Running away should be a slave's instinctive reaction.

Nangong Longze, who was sitting on the sidelines watching the investigation, had a flash of interest in his eyes. He never thought that this woman actually had two brushes. In just a short time after entering, she had figured out the causes of the diseases that the imperial doctors found troublesome.

, the way the maid is being interrogated now is really a bit like a court interrogation.

"No, no, no, none of this has anything to do with my sister. I stole the sandalwood myself." Li Yue blurted out, with a flash of regret in his eyes, hating how he could involve his sister at this time.

Come in.

"Yes, Princess Pingnan."

"This servant is just a maid who trims vegetation, how can she know this..." Li Yue was startled at first, then waved her hands repeatedly.

"Back to Princess Pingnan, this servant has nothing else to do except taking care of the flowers and plants in the garden." Li Yue lowered her eyes, not daring to look directly into Huangfu Yuqing's eyes.

"You...stay with Li Yue! The rest of the people should leave." Huangfu Yuqing poured herself a cup of tea and waved her hand lightly, signaling the other maids to leave first.

A look of disbelief flashed across Qiu Hong's eyes when she was called out. Being called out by Huangfu Yuqing at this time was obviously not a good sign, but she still didn't understand where she had given away her fault.
